SEBI Develops AI Tool for Cyber Safety
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is creating a special tool using artificial intelligence to check how well companies in the stock market are prepared for cyber attacks.
This tool will look at reports about cyber safety, find any problems, and decide which companies need more help.
SEBI is also making a plan to help stock exchanges and other important market organizations use better technology over the next 5 to 10 years.
The plan focuses on making the market safer, more efficient, and more trustworthy.
SEBI's chairman said that it's important to keep improving these systems so that the market stays strong and reliable.
He also talked about how the Sensex, a key stock market index, has been an important part of India's financial history.
SEBI is developing an AI-powered tool to analyze cyber safety preparedness of regulated entities.
The tool will assess cyber audit reports, identify control gaps, and classify entities by risk exposure.
SEBI is also creating a 5- and 10-year technology roadmap for market infrastructure institutions (MIIs).
The roadmap focuses on technology, risk management, cyber resilience, and market integrity.
SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey emphasized the importance of continuous innovation and adaptation in market systems.
